Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

This was the first time I had visited Dr.McGuinness and I impressed .My appointment was at 2:00pm and I was taken in at the appointed time. Each step of the process was thoroughly explained. Every staff member that I interacted with was extremely polite and cordial. Dr.McGuinness was recommended to me by a couple of his patients. I too will be recommending Dr.McGuinness .

Dr McGuiness found a serious condition in my right eye. I wasn’t the least fearful with his news about bleeding behind the eye. He has a Very reassuring and calming manner. He immediately told me it was treatable. Highly recommend him to the world.
